Preserving Memories: Week of October 1

Grace-Filled Writer
Fall seems extremely busy this year. I’m still getting a couple of pages each week, but not as many as I was over the summer. I had fun using these new templates from Miss Fish Designs! I was hoping to get to celebrate Digital Scrapbook Day yesterday, but I just had too much other work to do. I’m still planning to splurge just a little on some fun new kits and will celebrate this coming week!

Preserving Memories: Week of September 17

Grace-Filled Writer

The two digital scrapbooking layouts I finished this week were actually a very recent event! We went to the zoo a week ago and while we were there had fun on the Air Hike course. This was the girls and my husband’s second time up, buy my first time. When they worked through it before I stayed on the ground to take pictures…and maybe because I have a little problem with heights, or at least a fear of falling from them!

Beth is very nervous in new situations anyway, but heights bother her as well. She desperately wanted to go on the zip line, but was too afraid last time. She told me if I went the next time she would go on it. So I got up my courage and made the trek into the treetops. The staff was amazing. They encouraged her and cheered her on the whole way! There was even a group of zoo goers who were cheering for her while she braved a rope net. They also let me hold her while we rode the zip-line the first time! It was really hard for me to make that first step, but I had to be bold and brave for my sweet girl! She asked me to ride with her one more time and then she went on her own three more times!

And that my friends is why I scrabook. I want to remember these moments and I want my girls to have the memories to keep and share with their own children some day. Memories matter and so I preserve them.

I’m working hard on my 2009 album! I’m into April now and moving right along. This year has fewer pictures, probably because I was pregnant and had 2 littles who were not quite 4 and 2!!! Not to mention I had several challenges with my third pregnancy. So here are my accomplishments for this week. I have two layouts for Beth’s second birthday. Which do you like better?

 This week I’ve been working on page from 2009. Looking back over these wonderful times when my girls were so small has been great fun. Little miss Grace hadn’t been born yet.

Preserving Memories: Week of July 17

 A few memory pages I’ve made over the last few weeks! Several of these are from our 2015, 3-day trip to Disney with my parents and a couple are just random ones from other years.
I do this in the evenings and sometimes afternoons (only during the summer!). This is currently my one hobby I have so much fun doing. I can usually knock out a page in 45-60 minutes or even shorter if my internet is working fast enough!

Preserving Memories: Week Of July 2

Not as much scrapping while on vacation, but I had a little time while we watched movies with the kids! I’ll be working on scanning in an abundance of my mother-in-laws photos today to repair and preserve. Probably some time in the pool will come first before the Florida heat gets to us!

Yup, that’s it! But vacation usually takes me away from scrapping and that is not a bad thing.
